Dean 1bomu Ceaarlo hosted the crowd this week honoring the generosity and the concern of Newport's Robert and Mar- garet Sprague by naming a lab- oratory and research center at the university in their honor. The Robert and Margaret Sprague PET Laboratory at the UCI Brain Imaging Center, part of. the UCI College of Medicine, was formally and ceremoniously dedicated Wednesday at a twi- light reception and dedication. Many local leaders including Peggy Goldwater and Bob Clay were on hand for the special event. Three big holiday luncheons, the •A' ticket affairs, happened this week. The first mid-day confab found the glamorous Islanders getting together for a chic winter meal at Hotel Pour Seasons. The Tuesday soiree attracted the best dressed gals for a champagne reception, a little lobster bisque soup, fashions by Devon Becke of Fashion Island, jewels by 'Ifaditional Jewelers, and most importantly, the pre- sentation of a $40,000 check to the Islander's charity of choice this year, Orangewood.

The aforementioned Newport seniors were joined on the first team by Harbor's Pete Hogan, and Phil Baltazar, as well as Coro- na del Mar standouts Ryan Coop- er, Mark Hatfield and Nick Hood. Santa Margarita, unbeaten and winner of 23 straight and defending its title heading into this week's CIF Southern Section Division V semifinals, produced Most Valuable Player John Minardi, Offensive Player of the Year Carson Palmer and Defen- sive Player of the Year Nick Cap- pelletti. Eagles' head man Jim Hartigan was also selected Coach of the Year. Baker, a versatile 5-foot-11, 184-pounder, was recognized as a running back. after earning first- team laurels as a junior comer- back. He rushed for 595 yards on 110 carries in five league games, including a 208-yard perfor- mance against Irvine. He also rushed for eight touchdowns: returned two punts to paydirt against El Toro and burned CdM with an interception return for a score. Fox, a 6-2, 300-pound senior tackle, was a force in the interior of the Sailors defense, helping Coach Jeff Brinkley's squad sur- vive opening league losses to Santa Margarita and Woodbridge to win three straight and make its eighth trip to the CIF Playoffs in nine seasons. Johnson, a 6-5. 225-pound junior, outdueled Woodbridge sophomore Shane Harris for the first-team punter spot, consistent· ly booming bombs to capture what Brinkley terms ·hidden yards· in the field-position battle.

Houtster will contribute pri- marily defense and rebounding, while Huntington is the most advanced of the freshmen, according to Bettencourt, who took over when Bob Dukus resigned after two sea.sons. Despite a lack of depth and relative inexperience, Betten- court said a return to the playoffs is witblll teaeh. •Winning the Sea Vlew League would be unreallstic. but we're shooting for a playoff berth.• Bettencourt said. •we have a long way to go, but by the time league rolls around, we should be coming together.• Mesa staggers the Barons, 1-0 •Mustangs' Matt Dunn scores only goal to put away Fountain Valley.
